page documents a <a href="/wiki/Research:Completed_projects" class="mw-redirect" title="Research:Completed projects">completed research project</a>.</b></div> </div> <p>Effort and the perception of effort do not always perfectly track each other. This is especially true online, were often the only visible evidence of work comes in your final result. The goal of this research project is to discover the intermediate steps that led to the final result, and to close the gap between effort and its perception. To do this we are asking Wikipedians to record their activities during the study period, the time that they commit to Wikipedia, and the process they follow as they work. </p><p>The end result of this study will be a data set of user work, time commitment, and work process. We intend to apply machine learning algorithms to this data set to predict time commitment involved in a given edit. We believe this stands to benefit the community by allowing more accurate recognition of time commitment to Wikipedia, as well as having possible applications in forecasting time commitment for various content development endeavors. Additionally, the data set will be released with user names removed to allow for other researchers and community members to build upon it. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Methods">Methods</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Research:Measuring_editor_time_commitment_and_workflow&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Methods"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>We intend to use prompted diary study to collect this data. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Recruitment">Recruitment</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Research:Measuring_editor_time_commitment_and_workflow&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Recruitment"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>We intend to use a combination of snowball sampling and targeted talk page messages for users that are highly active in the main namespace.
